Oil Rig Turned Tiny Home With A Lift Bed


When Rob and Karen first decided to travel North America instead of paying high property taxes and utility bills, they set off in a motorhome looking for the right vehicle. This old oil field truck they found was much tougher than an RV, and had a great box on the back, which they gutted and transformed.

The home has a deep sink, recirculating shower, and a special oven for making custom pizzas! But one of the coolest features is the elevator bed that comes down and has custom backrests, so they can lounge and watch TV or read. How does this retirement look to you?

No More High Property Taxes in This Rig

There’s a table space with two swivel chairs when the bed is elevated.

They have a cool deck/staircase that folds up when they go.

    This is nicely done. My only issue is that I would need more natural light inside. Other than that, this is a clever and well thought out build.

    Can’t get real excited about this one. Nothing here has any personality. 😴
